We've noted before the tendency of inspiration-free rags to devise lists for the sole purpose of filling the space between the ads; Useless News and Forbeslist perfected the art. Mirroring their editorial foot-on-desk proppings the publisher of the Congressional Quarterly has released its annual lists of America's putatively safest and unsafest cities, and while Detroit's town "fathers" (much in the matter of a one-parent child's, we should say) are mad because the CQ people merely repeat what the whole world knows to be true, occasionally blaming the messenger can nonetheless assign some responsibility.
